THE BEST HAIR TREATMENT FOR YOUR HAIR TYPE

Using the right formula for your specific needs can lead to significant improvement in the appearance and health of your hair. While fine or oily hair types should limit the use of hair treatments to once a week, dry, damaged or coarse hair can handle a mask as often as every shampoo.

COLOR-TREATED HAIR

Anyone with color-treated hair can greatly benefit from hair treatments, but it's important to select one that contains ingredients that won't strip hair color. Sunflower extract, found in Paul Mitchell ® Color Protect ® Treatment, is ideal for color-treated hair because it helps protect hair from sun damage and helps color last longer.

COARSE HAIR

Coarse hair has the largest diameter of all of the hair types, making it prone to frizz and dryness. A daily moisturizing oil, like Tea Tree Lavender Mint Nourishing Oil, helps to fight frizz and humidity while sealing split ends.

FINE HAIR

Thin hair is easily weighed down by heavy masks, but that doesn't mean that hair treatments are totally off limits. Lightweight oils like dry-touch, quick-absorbing Awapuhi Wild Ginger ® Styling Treatment Oil ® or nutrient-rich Tea Tree Hemp Replenishing Hair & Body Oil are both excellent choices for fine hair that needs extra hydration.

CURLY HAIR

Because curly hair tends to be naturally drier than straighter hair types, opt for a treatment that's specifically formulated for curls like Paul Mitchell ® Full Circle Leave-In Treatment ®. Its creamy formula smoothes, detangles and replenishes every curl without weighing hair down.

DRY HAIR

Anyone with dry, dehydrated hair should look for an ultra-rich, deep conditioning hair mask that delivers an intense dose of moisture like Paul Mitchell ® Super-Charged Treatment. It provides hydration and protection with panthenol, soy proteins and vitamin E.

OILY HAIR

Using a heavy conditioner on oily hair is a guaranteed way to make hair even greasier, which is why oilier types should try a leave-in conditioning spray instead. Paul Mitchell ® Awapuhi Moisture Mist ® is a lightweight formula that balances moisture for hair that’s soft, hydrated and silky-smooth.

Why clarify shampoo before deep conditioning?

Stylists recommend using a clarifying shampoo before deep conditioning hair to remove buildup, which helps hair masks and treatments penetrate better. Swimmers who are in the pool daily may need to clarify more often to prevent the greenish tinge hair can take on due to chlorine exposure.

Does Paul Mitchell shampoo help with oily hair?

If you use hair styling products daily, Paul Mitchell® Shampoo Two® deep cleans hair and removes dulling buildup. It’s also good for oily hair since it helps to minimize oil production so hair becomes less oily over time.
